At the moment the Cyclone is moving from Vanuatu towards Fiji Islands, and it is forecasted to strengthen along its path. When reaching Fiji, the Tropical Cyclone is expected to move north-east and make landfall on Veti Levu Island (Fiji) on December 18, around 00:00 local time. According to GDACS, Tropical Cyclone YASA-20 can have a medium humanitarian impact based on the maximum sustained wind speed, exposed population, and vulnerability. Based on data of the forecasted tropical cyclone path of wind speeds zones from Joint Research Centre (Issued on December 12, 2020, 12:00 local time), and population data from the WorldPop 2020, UNITAR- UNOSAT has prepared a population exposure analysis for Fiji. About 55% of the population of Fiji lives within the wind speed zone that exceeds 120 km/h, while 41% lives within the wind speed zone of 60- 120 km/h and 4% lives within the wind speed zone below 60 km/h. Population Exposure in Fiji as of December 15, 2020, at 12:00 (local time) The population exposure has been calculated using a 100 m resolution WorldPoP dataset. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field.

  • We Are Kai Tonga”
    5. “We are Kai Tonga” The islands of Moala, Totoya and Matuku, collectively known as the Yasayasa Moala, lie between 100 and 130 kilometres south-east of Viti Levu and approximately the same distance south-west of Lakeba. While, during the nineteenth century, the three islands owed some allegiance to Bau, there existed also several family connections with Lakeba. The most prominent of the few practising Christians there was Donumailulu, or Donu who, after lotuing while living on Lakeba, brought the faith to Moala when he returned there in 1852.1 Because of his conversion, Donu was soon forced to leave the island’s principal village, Navucunimasi, now known as Naroi. He took refuge in the village of Vunuku where, with the aid of a Tongan teacher, he introduced Christianity.2 Donu’s home island and its two nearest neighbours were to be the scene of Ma`afu’s first military adventures, ostensibly undertaken in the cause of the lotu. Richard Lyth, still working on Lakeba, paid a pastoral visit to the Yasayasa Moala in October 1852. Despite the precarious state of Christianity on Moala itself, Lyth departed in optimistic mood, largely because of his confidence in Donu, “a very steady consistent man”.3 He observed that two young Moalan chiefs “who really ruled the land, remained determined haters of the truth”.4 On Matuku, which he also visited, all villages had accepted the lotu except the principal one, Dawaleka, to which Tui Nayau was vasu.5 The missionary’s qualified optimism was shattered in November when news reached Lakeba of an attack on Vunuku by the two chiefs opposed to the lotu.

  • Cyclone Ana – Fiji
    ROTARY APPEAL FOR JANUARY 2021 CYCLONE ANA – FIJI FOLLOW UP REQUEST FOR DONATIONS OF CASH Just 7 weeks after Cyclone Yasa devastated Fiji resulting in some 345 ERKs being distributed, Fiji was struck by Cyclone Ana at the end of January. Whilst its intensity reached only Cat. 2, the rainfall before and since has been relentless. A further 600 ERKs have been released to the most vulnerable families in the Western Division. The cyclone season still has 10 weeks to run and we retain a small supply for another eventuality. The depletion of stock will require replenishment during the off season and our assembly team leaders have commenced putting a plan of action in place. Our appeal for donations following Cyclone Yasa was stricken by its timing coinciding with the Dec/Jan holidays. We are grateful to the clubs that did respond. It is now more than 35 years since Rotarians in Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere together with the NZ Govt. and the public began to provide first response support to our Pacific neighbours who almost annually are affected by cyclone, flood and on occasions tsunami. Rotary always collaborates with the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs Emergency Task Force in Wellington and the Emergency Disaster Management Office in country to ensure that the Emergency Response Kits and other supplies are directed for best possible advantage to those affected. Rotary and supporters provide logistical support where they are able, often themselves faced with destruction to their own homes. Retired NZHC endorses Rotary’s response. “I experienced first-hand the real value of the ERKS in 2012 in Samoa as New Zealand High Commissioner and as a member of the Apia Rotary Club.

In 2019, only 32 people living in Finland were born in the islands, ten of them participated in this study. Even though there have been studies on the Pacific Islands’ diasporas, this is the first time such a study has been conducted in Finland. It is also the first one of its kind to look at long-distance nationalism from the perspectives of the islanders in Finland. The three research questions are, how do the Pacific islanders forge and sustain a community in Finland? How do Pacific Islanders create and maintain connections with their homelands? What challenges do they face in their effort to reconnect with their homelands? The thesis tests three hypotheses; the islanders are creating a place and space for themselves “here” to belong, connect, and to practice their cultures; they maintain the connection to their home-islands through social media, sending remittances, and direct visit; there are factors, such as financial capital and personal changes, that inversely affect the islanders’ connectivity to their homelands.
